Description: In 1991, Bronwen Carmichael is a student in Durham. While researching aspects of World War Two, she finds her mother Rosa's journal. It was written in 1954; Rosa was thirteen and England was recovering from the war. As Bronwen discovers, it was also a dark time in Rosa's childhood. At the journal's heart is a deep family secret which now, fifty years later, may suddenly create havoc in the restrained Carmichael family. This secret has tied the family together - matriarch Kate, writer Rosa, academic Bronwen and daughter Lily - with invisible cords.
